Our Mission
BKYSC assists Brooklyn youth in their pursuit of college enrollment using basketball as the hook for academic engagement and leadership development. BKYSC is based on the simple premise that youth can achieve anything when they are motivated, engaged and respected. Our mission is to provide high quality, youth-centered after school and summer programming, using athletics as a hook for academic engagement and leadership development. BKYSC provides youth with high quality athletics, academics, arts, community activism, cultural and career exposures as a way for Brooklyn youth to learn life skills transferable for college, career, life readiness and success.
